Description
Enter the home through an imported Italian door leading into a spacious first floor foyer, den, half bath and an ample patio surfaced with wood and unique planters.
The second floor is an entertaining oasis complete with an extra large kitchen island, timeless wood cabinetry extending to 9 foot ceilings, a beautiful stainless hood over a chef’s stove. In the spacious dining room and included in this sale is a Veraluz Flow chandelier made from upcycled metals. The living room is sunlit with a beautiful navy accent wall, oversized bay windows and a gas fireplace framed in Spanish ceramic tile with a slate threshold.
The third floor has two bedrooms connected by a Jack and Jill bathroom with a double vanity, a separate water closet and a linen closet and is beautifully fitted with pocket doors. Also on the third floor is a separate laundry room with built in cabinetry that provides a surface for folding.
On the top floor you will find a serene primary suite with three California closets, a large bathroom with a soaking tub, dual vanity, rain shower, a separate water closet and a linen closet. Have morning coffee or enjoy cocktails watching the sunset through the suite's French doors that open to a private front deck lined with Ipe wood and a rear deck that offers additional outdoor space and the possibility of access to a future roof deck.
Finally, the finished basement is yet another beautiful area for entertaining, exercise or a 4th bedroom that has a barn door fabricated from reclaimed shipyard wood and a walk in California closet. The unfinished portion of the basement provides space for storage and a portion of it could be converted to an additional bathroom while retaining ample storage.
The front facade of the home was recently faced with Hardie Plank and an architecturally stunning black steel garage door. All entrances are framed in cedar wood and there are Hunter Douglas shades and shutters throughout. This home is an absolutely UNIQUE combination of price quality and location, steps away from Queen Village, and an easy walk to Bella Vista, Society Hill and the Italian Market.
